Angry/slightly depressed/glad
My mum, who is an alcholic, drank a tonne over the weekend. The last time she'd been drunk (a couple of weeks before) she had said that would be the last time she would drink (like she has said everytime she gets caught drinking). Anyway, my dad did aboslutely nothing about her drinking over the weekend (as usual) and by monday everybody was acting like nothing had happened. Today, my family and i were supposed to go to this theme park to celebrate my sister's birthday. I point blank refused to go, however, as i didn't want to play 'happy families' and ignore what had happened at the weekend. I had an argument with my mum and she said, among other things, that i should go on the trip and not 'burn any bridges' (as if she hadn't burnt any bridges over the past 4/5 years of drinking!!). I stood firm and eventually they went without me.
I feel good for having actually done something and not pretending like the weekend never happened, but pretty lousy as it was my sister's b-day thing and i shouldn't make her suffer for something my mum did (although my sister still has her bf, her best friend and other brother going with her)
At least i get the house to myself for a couple of days.
